Autumn ;)

Who doesn't like Autumn?! In both worlds its the time of the year that is so pretty!

I also think I have found the winter boots that I will be wearing for the duration in Second Life! Its very unusual to put an item of clothing on especially shoes or boots and NOT have to mod any of it to help it fit better! These Snowy boots are that rare find!

I'm A Grown Up...!

I have an office :D

When I saw the latest releases from LISP well I just had to grab it! I feel like I am turning into a bit of a "Lisp Stalker" as I just love their stuff but its fantastic when you (I)find a store who makes things "just how I like them.." I then buy up a storm, its a must! The Star Angel on the desk is also from LISP.

I have a few other stores that I am a huge, HUGE, fan of to and so I have landmarks and a memo (in my new desk drawers) reminding me to go buy them out at the first available opportunity..:D

I brought this Beatrice set here: Marketplace.  It worked out cheaper to buy it as the set because saving lindens is ALWAYS a good thing!


The little box of "things" down by the desk I picked up from the Texture Store Insight Designs. They have some cute little bits of furniture out so along with their gorgeous textures, its a store that is worthy of a visit.

I Finally Changed!

After all this moving of furniture and late nights arranging couches and lamps I thought it was about time I changed my clothes! 3 day old t-shirts is not good for anyone's health and don't even get me started on the hair!

So cue the vain 5 minutes before I get back to making my dream home all I want it to be ;)

I also just wanted to say that if you have a like minded blog and would like to trade links, feel free to leave a comment or contact me :)

Making Some Progress.

I still have so much to do and I am loving it! I just wanted to share with you how moving in is going. I know, I know my fireplace needs more decoration ;) A huge lovely mantel like that is crying out for accessories but as I said before this is a work in progress so the mantel will have to be patient. Unlike me!

The cupboard in the corner was actually meant to be a wardrobe and it had a coat hanger on the door and a towel hanging on the inside but the very lovely LISP make most of their stuff Modifiable so I was able to remove the hanger and towel so that the cupboard which I loved so much would not look out of place in a lounge area.

I so LOVE the clock I have above the fireplace, I actually think its one of my favourite things so far.
I modified the door way of the house I brought as I like it to always be open. I love random people dropping in, I think its all part of exploring Second Life. So I rarely have closed doors. Though the land I have at the moment is pretty much off the beaten track so I am not sure if I will have unexpected visitors.

The curtains you can see there I got from TATTY SOUP and I modified them so I could get a colour that would somewhat match the look I was trying for. If you have not been to TATTY SOUP then go there NOW! Run and TP as fast as you can! Lots of lovely, lovely trinkets and NONE of them priced stupidly expensive. Most deffinaley on my list of favourites.

I can't even begin to explain the difference in graphics and the things you can buy now compared to when I first joined at the end of 2006. I still think it a hoot that we can build and rez over 200m high! It brings home just how crowded the skies use to be lol.

I am though experiancing a little "discrimination" I guess because of my new avies age. I love her lots! Though not everyone else does...lol I have heard a few "newb" comments thrown my way which I just ignore. These people do not get that the genuine new people are very much whats needed in SL! We need them here to busy up the place, to buy your stuff and to rent your land! If we make them feel "stupid" for being new then I am sure they will soon be hitting that little red cross up in the corner of their screen! Lets not chase them away before they have a chance to get addicted huh?

On another note, I really do think I should get changed! I have worn the same clothes for about 3 days now! I stink!

Excuse The Mess!

Argh! I have forgotten what it is like to decide where I want everything to go in my new virtual hide-a-way! FOUR houses later I think I have finally found one I like in every way, though I will still mod it a little to make it "mine. I went for this house as I like the simpleness of just a couple of rooms and it has an adorable porch area which I plan to cover with lots of pots, flowers and things.


I have been buying up a storm! I love all the cute furniture and accessories that you can buy inworld now though I nowhere near have all that I want yet. I am still looking for amongst other things just the "right" couch to have in the main living room.  I thought I would keep track of the bits I am buying by throwing everything out onto the floor, I thought it may also inspire me on where things should live. Nope. Its just added to the chaos ;)


As soon as I have at least a few things where I want them I will start listing credits and where I brought things. Though like most people in SL making my SL home perfect will always be an ongoing project, that's part of the fun!

Hello World!

Hi!

Ok, so after a long hiatus from Second Life I decided to venture back in to the land of lag! I tend to wander around aimlessly which is fun but I thought it would be interesting to keep a blog on the things I buy, see and do!

I don't claim to know what is hot and what's not in our crazy virtual world! This blog is just where I put the things that I like and who knows..maybe you will like them to!
